Outlook & Entourage - Interoperable Hyperlinks

[Guest]

Hi,

I have an Office full of XP PCs running MS Office XP, and 2 Macs running
Entourage 2004.

When an Outlook user attaches a file with "Insert as Hyperlink", the Macs
see the hyperlink, but can not follow it. I have tried via mapped drive and
UNC.

Is there any way to:

1) Make the Mac recognise the PC link.
or
2) Make the PC generate a Mac link.

Thanks in advance.
Dean.

Try Command-clicking the link on the Mac.

If that fails, take a look at the shareware utility "iceCoffee".
